Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

After the two of them entered the room, they bowed to Wei Xiaode. Wei Xiaode smiled and said: "No need to be so polite when you come to my place. You two came together, there must be something going on, right? What's going on? Son? Tell me."

Chen Xiwang said: "Master, it was Minister Zhao who discovered something and asked me to report it to you." After saying that, he turned around and glanced at Zhao Hai. Wei Xiaode also looked at Zhao Hai. Zhao Hai directly told Wei Xiaode about the consequences of the tax increase in Xianting.

Wei Xiaode still had a smile on his face at first, but as he listened, the smile on his face completely disappeared. He looked at Zhao Hai and said: "Zhao Hai, is what you said true? Have you investigated?"

Zhao Hai shook his head and said: "I have never investigated it. I only found out about this matter after I received a letter from the boss of the main formation of Sanshan City. He said that there are already some small businessmen in Sanshan City. The business is closed and we have to find another way out."

As soon as Wei Xiaode heard what Zhao Hai said, he immediately turned to Chen Xiwang and said: "Go and check, in three days, I want to know the accurate news in three days."

Chen Xiwang responded, and then the two of them saluted Wei Xiaode, and then exited Wei Xiaode's study. As soon as they exited Wei Xiaode's study, Wei Xiaode immediately said to a young eunuch next to him: "Go, give Ma Degong to I'll call." The little eunuch responded and immediately went to call for someone.

After a while, Ma Degong arrived at Wei Xiaode's study. When they arrived, Wei Xiaode didn't wait for Ma Degong to salute, and said to Ma Degong: "Send someone down to check to see if the court has raised taxes this time. What impact will it have on those small businessmen? I heard that there are many small businessmen now who have closed their businesses and stopped doing business. You have to check it out. Don’t just check it here in Xiandu. Check it out and see. What is the reaction of those merchants with big family backgrounds? I will give you three days and I want a clear result."

Ma Degong was stunned for a moment, and then he immediately responded. Wei Xiaode waved his hand, and Ma Degong exited the room. After Ma Degong left, Wei Xiaode was stomping around the room. He was thinking, what if What Zhao Hai said is true, so what to do is indeed a difficult problem.

For the next three days, Wei Xiaode has been waiting for news about Chen Xiwang and Ma Degong. Three days later, Chen Xiwang and Ma Degong came to Wei Xiaode's room almost in no particular order. Wei Xiaode saw that both of them had arrived. , he nodded at the two of them and said, "What I asked you to investigate is the same thing. You can also tell me how the investigation goes." After saying that, he glanced at Ma Degong. Understand what Wei Xiaode meant, let him speak first.

Ma Degong quickly saluted Wei Xiaode and said: "Master, I asked our Dongwei people to investigate this matter. The situation is very bad. Now many small businesses in various cities have closed their doors, even more so. Some small businesses directly put their businesses in the names of those big families. They will pay some money to those big families, but because the names are in the names of those big families, they don't have to pay taxes. , so now there are a lot less small businesses in the cities. Even some merchants who had no relationship with the major families and did a lot of business can no longer stand it, and the scale of their business is also shrinking, and Contrary to them, the businesses of major families are expanding very quickly."

Wei Xiaode turned to look at Chen Xiwang again, and Chen Xiwang said solemnly: "The results of my investigation are the same as those of my senior brother. Master, this is the booklet I wrote." After saying that, Chen Xiwang took out a booklet and gave it to Wei Xiaode, and Ma Degong also took out a fold and gave it to Wei Xiaode.

Wei Xiaode took the papers from the two of them and looked at them carefully. Then he said in a deep voice: "Okay, you guys go back first. I must report this matter to His Majesty immediately." The two of them responded, and then they both shouted at each other. Wei Xiaode bowed, then turned and exited Wei Xiaode's study.

After the two people left, Wei Xiaode took the two memorials and went directly to ask for an audience with the late emperor. Being an internal official had this advantage. They could ask for an audience with the Immortal Emperor at any time, and the Immortal Emperor had nothing to do with them. Also more trusting.

The Immortal Emperor quickly called Wei Xiaode into the study. After Wei Xiaode saluted the Immortal Emperor, the Immortal Emperor looked at Wei Xiaode and said, "What's wrong with Wei Banban? His face is so ugly? He also saw it, Wei Xiaode His face was very ugly, so he asked this question. He knew very well that Wei Xiaode was actually a very determined person. There was really no way for him to be so serious about ordinary things. He had always been so serious. Smiling face welcomes people. And there seems to be no big events happening in the fairy world recently. He really doesn't know what could make Wei Xiaode so serious.

Wei Xiaode saluted the Immortal Emperor and said: "Your Majesty, I heard Zhao Hai mention something three days ago. I was very worried, so I asked someone to check it out and ask Your Majesty to take a look." After that, he took out the two memorials in his hand, and the little eunuch took them and placed them in front of the Immortal Emperor.

The Immortal Emperor picked up a memorial and glanced at it, and then his face slowly became suspicious. After he read the first memorial, his face was already ashen, and then he immediately Once he took out another memorial and looked at it carefully. After reading it, his face became even more ugly. He threw the memorial to the ground heavily, looked at Wei Xiaode and said: "What is said in this memorial, Is it all true?”

Wei Xiaode looked at the Immortal Emperor, and then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, this is what I asked the people from Dongwei to investigate after listening to Zhao Hai's report. It should not be wrong."

"Bastards, these bastards, what do they want to do? Do they want to cause chaos in the immortal world? Go and call me the two prime ministers, the left and right ministers, and the six ministers. I really want to ask them what they want to do." The Immortal Emperor said angrily.

Wei Xiaode said quickly: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Even if we call them all over now, it will be of no use. After all, the decree issued by the court represents the prestige of the court. If the order is changed overnight, the prestige of the court will be gone." , this will have a greater impact on the court, your Majesty, please think twice."

The Immortal Emperor suddenly stood up and stomped on the ground: "If this law cannot be abolished, what can we do? If this continues, the power of the major families will rapidly gather and expand, and the court will be conquered. If taxes are not raised, there will be no money to raise soldiers. In this case, the fairy court will be finished. Someone, call Liu Zhong." Immediately, a young eunuch responded and went to invite people.

Wei Xiaode said: "Your Majesty, the more we are at this time, the more we must calm down. Now that the decree has just been promulgated, it will definitely be difficult to withdraw it. Then we must find a way to allow the court to collect the money. , only in this way can we truly get through this difficulty."

"It's not easy said than done. Those big families are all related to the ministers of the DPRK. Although I have troops now, and as long as those ministers object, I am afraid it will be difficult if I really want to issue a decree. So even if I want I'm afraid it's impossible to withdraw this decree, let alone think of other ways." The Immortal Emperor frowned.

At this time Liu Zhong also arrived. After Liu Zhong bowed to the Immortal Emperor, the Immortal Emperor asked Liu Zhong to read the two memorials. After Liu Zhong read the two memorials, his face was also very ugly. He said to the Immortal The emperor said: "Your Majesty, if this is really the case, then this matter will be really troublesome. The decree cannot be easily withdrawn. If you want to withdraw it, you have to wait at least three years. But after three years, those big families will It has become a climate, and by that time, even if this decree is withdrawn, it will be too late."

The Immortal Emperor nodded, and then said: "Liu Banban, do you have any solution to this matter?"

Liu Zhong shook his head and said: "This happened too suddenly, and I couldn't do anything about it for a while." Liu Zhong was telling the truth. What a good idea.

The Immortal Emperor turned to look at Wei Xiaode again, and Wei Xiaode also shook his head, and then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, I don't have any good solution. After receiving the news three days ago, I have been thinking about what if This news is true, so what should we do, but unfortunately, I am stupid, and I haven’t come up with a good solution in three days, so please forgive me."

The Immortal Emperor shook his head and said: "Forget it, I can't blame you for this. I don't know whether those guys did it on purpose or just by chance. If they did it on purpose, it would be terrible. They I want to drag the fairy world into the bottomless abyss."

Liu Zhong suddenly spoke at this time: "Eunuch Wei, you said you received the news three days ago. Who gave you the news?" Liu Zhong really didn't know the whole story about this matter. He knew too much, that's why he asked.

Wei Xiaode said: "It's Zhao Hai, the Minister of War. Zhao Hai is the leader of the Blood Killing Sect, and the leader of Sanshan City, Mr. Zhen, is also a member of the Blood Killing Sect. Shop closures have already happened in Sanshan City. Mr. Jin I thought this matter was very important, so I informed Zhao Hai, and Zhao Hai notified me."

Liu Zhong nodded, and then he turned to the Immortal Emperor and said: "Your Majesty, since Zhao Hai discovered this matter, why don't we invite Zhao Hai to discuss it and see if Zhao Hai has any solution? If he has any solution, then Of course it’s best, if he can’t help it, we can discuss it with one more person.”

The Immortal Emperor was stunned for a moment, then he nodded and said: "It makes sense, come and ask Zhao Hai, the Minister of War, to come and discuss the matter." Immediately, a young eunuch responded, and then went to invite people.

After the little eunuch left, the Immortal Emperor sighed softly and said: "What I am most worried about now is that even if we come up with some method, the people in the court will not follow it. If it really If that’s the case, it would be really difficult.”

Wei Xiaode and Liu Zhong also nodded. The last time the Immortal Emperor used threats to make the left and right phases retreat, they also got a lot of benefits. However, this method cannot always be used, otherwise, there will be no Used, so this time things are really a bit difficult to handle, so how to do it is really a headache. The left and right ministers control the ministers in the court, which makes them too uncomfortable. .
